05 — Featured Keynote: Who Is In The Room?

THE ROOM
DECIDES
EVERYTHING.

David’s Perspective

David argues that most performance problems are room problems — who's in it, what they're allowed to say, and what actually gets rewarded. This talk gives leaders a practical lens for diagnosing their own teams rather than importing a generic 'culture' framework.

Who Is In The Room?

FEATURED KEYNOTE — Who Is In The Room?

What Audiences Explore

  • The difference between a comfortable team and a high-trust one
  • Why psychological safety is not the same as low standards
  • Diagnosing whether disagreement is missing or just hidden
  • What changes when a leader is the first to admit a mistake

What Audiences Leave With

  • A short diagnostic they can run on their own team
  • Language for the kind of disagreement they want more of
  • A clearer read on their own role in the room's culture

IDEAL AUDIENCE

Leadership teams, HR and people functions, and organisations scaling quickly.
